The Tab A is now official in Canada, and Canada’s southern “sibling” is expected to see Samsung’s latest tablets arrive in stores on May 1st, but other countries won’t see the new tablets until some days or weeks in the future.
Fortunately, Malaysian customers who’ve been hearing about the Tab A series won’t have to wait much longer until the two tablets are revealed in their country. Malaysian site Soyacincau says that Samsung Malaysia has sent out invitations to the local event and next Wednesday, April 29th, is the magic date.
We already know the Tab A specs, but the biggest drawback in the tech media pertains to the device’s low, iPad 2 screen resolution (1,024 x 768p), which is nowhere near as impressive as Samsung’s Quad HD (2,560 x 1,440p) resolution on the Galaxy Note 4, Galaxy S6, and Galaxy S6 edge, or Samsung’s TabPRO and NotePRO tablets.
There are a few things to consider when comparing the Galaxy Tab A screen resolution to that of the NotePRO and TabPRO, however: 1) the TabPRO and NotePRO series are now 14 months old and arrived with Android KitKat, whereas the Tab A series will arrive with Android 5.0 Lollipop; 2) the Tab A will receive at least two years of support (2015-2017), whereas Samsung’s old Pro tablet lineup will warrant a refresh this year but the current Pro tablets can only count on one more year of support before they are no longer update-eligible. Finally, the Tab A looks to be an inexpensive “Note tab”-like device for those who’d rather not pay $700 or $800 for a Samsung tablet. These budget-friendly individuals will content themselves with a below-expected screen resolution, provided that the build quality meets or exceeds their expectations.
Malaysian customers, have you been eyeing the Tab A as your next tablet of choice? Do you want the 9.7-inch Tab A and crave the stylus support? Are there any questions you have about the Tab A series? If so, feel free to ask them in the comments below.
